Details:

Using inputname(ii) in the class constructor (e.g. the simple class in the
attached ctest.m) returns inputname(ii+1).
In other words, when you expect the first input argument, you get the second
and so one.  for ii = nargin, you get an 'index out of bounds' error.  

Code : ctest.m attached
commands:

a=1; b=2; c = ctest(a,b);


result :

error: ctest: A(I): index out of bounds; value 2 out of bound 1
error: called from
    ctest at line 10 column 34
    inputname at line 38 column 5
    ctest at line 10 column 34


expected: a class c with c.inputnames = {'a', 'b'}

Note: setting the upper bound of the for loop in the constructor to nargin-1
creates a class with c.inputnames = { 'b', []}
